These cases are SERIES 81 appeals from
the principal sss;ts III which the Bell pal
ents OF Marsh Z, 1876, and Jan. 30, 1877,
have beaa Iitigated. The principal sub
iieois OF con troversy in the lower courts
in all of these cases were the meaning
and construction of the Bell patent, the
question what a speaking telephone is, a
comparison of the invention set forth in
the Bell patent with the previous state of
the art, and particularly with what is
known as the Refs telephone, and the
meaning and scope of Bells claim on
which the issue OF infringement turns.
The litigation has given rise to records
containing thirty-fve or forty volumes OF
evidence and arguments. There are
twenty volumes OF record now before this
court containing nearly 10000 printed
pages. besides volumnous briefs.

compliment TO the newspapers in g ser
men before the Grand Army Of the Re
public Of Philadelphia recently. His
theme was What | Saw at the Battle
Of Gettysburg" In the course Of which,
having traced the scenes of the third

None Of the Generals engaged, and
certainly not General Meade. kasw at
the close Of the day to which side vioto-
~ belonged. In fact, there was a pref
~ general impression that the Union
army bad been beaten, and the first in
timatiou Of the victory was given the
troops the following morning by an
article IN Baltimore newspaper, which
had been brought into the lines by a
boy on horseback.
That q Newspaper correspondent,
should be the FIRST to inform the Gene
raj in command that be had won the
day, vas no mean achievement.

less important than the necessity Of

II Il is determined TO come down 10
Portland, the Columbia will probably
be crossed at Pasco Junction. near the
mouth Of Snake river. The line will
most likely be built through the Klicki-
tat country, striking the river near The
Dalles and following its northern bank
thrsueh the gorge Of the Cascades.
From the western end of the gorge il
would probably sheer 10 the north and
follou the south fork Of the Lewis river
to the Columbia. opposite the foot Of
Ssuvie's island. thence 20 Kalana, across
the river 70 Portland. The route a.

line but such q course W0ald bring il
into Portland and avoid bridge tolls.
Bat all this, il should be remembered, is
mere oonjesture.
II the EoFtheFn Pacific builds this
line, there will of course be an end "a
division OF territory With the Oregon
Railway 4 Navigation in the Columbia
river basin. As matter Of necessity
branch lines would be extended into the
grain country both north and south OF
Snake river. All of which would be 9
fine thing for Portland. as well az FOL
